Normality Smormaility! 


Everyone I know/am close to are wonderfully deranged, complete lunatics, basket case, thrill seeking, nutters. Who giggle in public maybe a little too much, say inappropriate things at inappropriate times that continuously make me snort coke from my nostrils, speak their mind no matter what deep weird things live there and want to be perpetually 'effed. It's the biggest soap opera to keep track of all these kids but at the end of the day they are all there for me and each other in their own little unique ways. From listening to you when you cry, to trying to "fix" things with puppet-ing, to cleaning kitchens in moments of stress. It's a bit of a mess but a loveable mess. We are all kind of fumbling through life in the best way we know how. Moving out may have been the biggest thing I've ever taken on, within my own control. I don't regret it at all. 

Here's some things I've learned from being a lone ranger; 

  1. I can't manage anything other than beans for breakfast
  2. I don't like loud foreign room-mates
  3. and I hate a dirty kitchen 
  4. That parks are not only relaxing but a great place to read a book, which i indulge in almost every day. 
  5. People without families get really lonely
  6. flouresent lights send you mad
  7. no home cooked food hurts you tum and your bank account
  8. your parents are actually lovely people who gave up a lot of youth to manage us
  9. everything is expensive
  10. liquor stores don't like packs of teenagers
  11. don't ever engage in conversation with a group of homeless people
  12. Shisha is a delicious middle eastern tradition and reminds me of strawberry liquorice 
  13. vomit in hallways costs big bucks
  14. the night guard doesn't like "happy mondays" 
  15. drawing on yourself is a weekly necessity 
  16. sushi is god.
  17. socks are fleeting and doing washing is lame 
  18. Talking about yourself isn't a bad thing, its trust building 
  19. P-pop is cost effective and a fun drink 
  20. Bus drivers aren't very nice people 
  21. university is a lot different to school but in many good ways 
  22. being independent makes me really happy 
  23. 711 has terrible security skills and the workers pretty poor grammar. 
  24. I need to listen to music everyday to feel sane 
  25. a single bed isn't that bad, just a bit toasty when people drop on in. 
  26. at the end of the day everyone no matter how sane/happy/rich/young/loved wants to feel needed and important to other people.

And finally 27. I over think everything, it's one of many quirks and I wouldn't change it just like I wouldn't change any of the others. 



In conclusion here is a song by Best Coast, I've already ticked them off my to see list and they were awesome. This song kind of summarises this point in my life I guess. But really it's just a good song, so have a listen. 

My highs my are high my lows are low
And I don't know which way to go 

I lost my job, I miss my mum, I wish my cat could talk 

And nothing makes me happy, 
not even TV, 
or a bunch of weed

Well I don't love you and I don't hate you.
